Airline Deals and Travel Insights
Pakistan-Middle East labor travel is steadily increasing, and Multan Airport can now easily substitute Lahore and Islamabad. Other airlines that have spread their routes include the PIA, Air Arabia, and Fly Dubai which provide direct and connecting flights at specified times of labour movement.
Some of the airlines have also collaborated with the Pakistani Overseas Employment Corporation (OEC) to offer special discounts and group reservations to customers travelling to the country in search of construction, domestic and industrial employment. The flights are usually arranged in conjunction with the peak seasons of demand – particularly the approaches to Ramadan and Eid – when the overseas workers are coming to or leaving the Gulf.
Also, today the airlines pay attention to the employee friendly rewards like free date change, priority boarding with laborers and easy visa preparation support at the airport. The regular demand of Pakistan workers in logistics, healthcare, and service sectors has been a consistent phenomenon in most Middle Eastern locations especially UAE and Saudi Arabia, which also contributes to why the Pakistani need affordable air connections in the southern part of Punjab.
